1958 Map of Sherman NW

About this map

Perrin Air Force Base dominates the central landscape of this 1950s survey, its runways and facility grid standing in sharp contrast to the surrounding creek-cut terrain. On the northwestern edge, the Hagerman National Wildlife Refuge preserves the natural shoreline near an old segment of the Texas Missouri Kansas and Pacific railroad. The map captures a transition in North Texas land use, where traditional agrarian markers like Hagerman Ch and Kersey Cem sit alongside an increasing number of Oil Wells. Near the southeastern corner, the outskirts of Sherman begin to take shape, featuring the Woodman Circle Home and Wakefield Sch. The drainage network, led by Iron Ore Creek and Harris Creek, illustrates the complex topography that shaped local settlement patterns before the full expansion of the neighboring urban centers.
